First off let me say that Nick Cave isn't for everyone and not all Nick Cave albums are as appealing to the masses as some. I'd say this album is for the committed Nick Cave fans. Nothing too flashy. Not full of hooks like some of his past works. What I can say is yesterday I sat on my couch in the dark nursing a serious headache and almost broke down in tears. My sad sack mood was lost in the music. Can't wait to give it another spin.
